    As prices and building costs keep rising(上涨的), the do-it-yourself (DIY） trend (趋势） in the U.S. continues to grow.

    “We needed furniture for our living room,” says John Ross, “And we just didn't have enough money to buy it. So we decide to try making a few tables and chairs.” John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a 2-week course for $280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.

    Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for $420. “I was deeply upset about it. Now I've finished a car repair course, I should be able to fix the car by myself.”

    John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so that they can fight with the high cost of living. If you want to become a “do-it -yourselfer”, you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don't have time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.

    A. run a DIY shop B. make it repair things

    A. makes shoes in his home

    C. does his own car and home repairs

    D. keeps house and looks after his children

    3.Jim Hatfield decided to become a do-it-yourselfer when _______.

    A. his car repairs cost too much

    B. the car repair class was not helpful

    C. he could not possibly do two jobs

    D. he had to raise the children all by himself

    4.What would be the best title for the text?

    Is it difficult for you to get up in the morning? Are you often late for work or school? Yes? Then a scientist called Mike has a special bed for you. His Bed will get you up in the morning! Here is how it works!

    The bed is connected to an alarm clock. First, the alarm clock rings. You have a few minutes to wake up. Next, a tape recorder in the bed plays soft music and then your girlfriend’s beautiful voice comes, “Wake up, darling, please.” A few minutes later, loud music comes from the tape recorder. At the same time, you may hear the voice of your boss. Your boss shouts angrily, “ Wake up at once, or you’ll be late!” If you don’t get up after that, you’ll be sorry! A plastic “foot” is in the bed. It kicks you in the head. Then the bed waits for a few more minutes. What! You’re still in bed!

    阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

    Li Haoqin is a 14-year-old girl in Sichuan. She studies English very hard. Every day, she listens carefully in class and does many exercises after class. However, in the last exam, her score(分数) of 68 made her very sad. “Why didn’t I get a good grade though I worked hard?” Li said to herself.

    Lots of middle school students are facing this problem—they try their best at something but can’t make it. “They don’t have effective(有效的) learning ways. This is the main reason for their difficulties,” says Bi Qin. Bi Qin is a well-known English teacher in Beijing No.4 High School, a key school in the capital city. She thinks that hard work is far from enough for middle school students. “Students have more subjects now. They should learn in many different ways so that they can get twice the result with half the hard work,” says Bi. “The more you use new words, the better you can remember them. For example, making sentences with new words is an effective way to learn.”

    Chen Xiping, a 13-year-old boy from Shandong, has his own way of learning English. “I study hard in school, and I also like watching CCTV-9. On the channel(频道), I always see the English words I have learned from my textbook,” says Chen. “It’s really useful.”

    Lin Pingyi, a 13-year-old girl from Shanghai, has a habit of reading. “I like reading English novels like The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway. While reading I take notes,” says Lin. “This way, I can remember more words and improve (提高) my reading and writing.”

    1.What made Li Haoqin very sad?

    ____________________________________________________________

    2.Why do lots of students try their best at subjects but can’t get good grades?

    ____________________________________________________________

    3.Where does Bi Qin teach?

    4.Which TV channel does Chen Xiping like watching?

    ____________________________________________________________

    5.What does Lin Pingyi like to do when she reads English novels?
